Steeler's Football



Someone actually asked me to make them something! So here it is. This is the first project I have used the scroll saw on. It handles much like a sowing machine and sounds like one too. This surprised me lol. Oh well, I got through it and it turned out great. I used the dremel to do sanding on the edge.

I will say though that the star thingies in the middle were absolutely horrible! It was so hard to keep from shaving the star tips off with the gouge. I went in and used the carving knife for easier control around those edges. It was still hard no matter how I did it.

I will update this as I put more stain on it and paint it.

Yes, I did put the scroll saw on the kitchen table. No, I didnt mount it there yet. My dad put wheels on the bottom of my 1/2 stack when I was a teen, I wonder if I can mount a scroll saw to the top :O
